Hardware/OS Best Practices

[kinglui]

Hi all,

I'm a new jellyfin User and excited about this software (i tried kodi, plex.... too).
I have tried to use my old self-made Linux router, but the performance sucks (4 GB RAM, Intel® Atom™ CPU D2550, SSD).
The first problem is the CPU which does not support any hardware acceleration. Watching a 1080p Video is not possible, the CPU stuck at 100%.
I decided to buy a new mini pc or NUC with e.g. an i3 7100U CPU (with UHD 620) but i'm not sure this enough for max. 3 par. 1080p Streams.
I started jellyfin in a docker container and mount a NFS share (all the libraries (Videos, pictures....) directly into the container (~300 mbit/sec)
Any experience or issues with this setup?

thanks and greets!

Three 1080p streams shouldn't be a problem for that iGPU.
